DATASHEET
Multiguard Indepth Type BMITB
Indepth crystalline technology based waterproofing material
ProductCodeNo.:H0702
Capillary/Crystalline (gray and white)
Penetrate deep into concrete
One time application for the life of
concrete
Potable water approved
Permanently active
User friendly and easy to apply
Tested up to 73 psi (5 bar) pressure
Applied to moist (damp) substrate from
either the positive or negative side
OVERVIEW:
MULTIGUARDINDEPTHtypeBisaunique
stateoftheart single component, penetrating
cementitious material which waterproof and
protectneworoldstructurallysoundconcrete
or concrete masonry indepth from water or
water born chemicals penetration. It is a
chemically similar to Type A, only less potent
orusedwherehydrostaticpressureisnotvery
high.Italso makesacosteffectivealternative
as second coat for Multiguard Indepth Type
A. Multiguard Indepth Type B works within
the concrete substrate to react with
unhydrated cement particles and water to
form crystals within the concrete mass. In
doing so, it will make the concrete
permanentlywaterproof.
USES:
MultiguardIndepthTypeBisusedasasingle
coat for dampproofing or asa second coat to
Multiguard Indepth Type A for the following
applications:
Allbelowgradeconcrete
Marinestructures
Bridgedecks,tunnels
Sewageandwatertreatmentplants
Reservoirsandstoragetanks
Swimmingpools,marineaquariums
Parkingslabsanddriveways
Concretewalls,floors,patiosandroofs
Elevatorandmaintenancepits
Hydro electric and power generation
stations.
ADVANTAGES:
* Environmentally friendly * Permanently active *
Easytouseneedsonly water formixing * Canbe
applied to green concrete as soon as forms are
stripped * Protects concrete against fresh water,
salt water, waste water and aggressive ground
water * Brush,drysprinkleorsprayapplied * Seal
and post seals shrinkage cracks, up to 0.4 mm *
containsnochlorides * Protectsconcreteindepth,
concrete remains waterproofed even if coating is
damaged. * Appliedto positive ornegative water
pressureside * Noodornofumes * Costeffective.
PROPERTIES:
MULTIGUARD INDEPTH B contains active
waterproofing chemicals which react with
moisture, and cementitious products in the
concrete, creating insoluble crystalline complexes
which seal the capillaries and minor shrinkage
cracks. They penetrate even against strong
hydrostaticpressure,becominganintegralpartof
theconcrete.Thewaterproofingchemicalsremain
active for the life of the structure, permanently
sealing it from water and waterborne chemicals
penetration.Thecrystalscontinuetogrowaslong
asmoistureispresent,oftenreachingseveralfeet
in length. Once moisture is removed, the
chemicals remain dormant in the concrete, ready

PREPARATIONOFSUBSTRATE:
The substrate must be sound clean, and havean
opencapillarysystem(toothandsuction)andfeel
like fine sand paper to insure mechanical bond
and allow Multiguard Indepth Type B
chemicalstopenetrate.Horizontalsurfacesshould
have a rough wood float or broom finish. Smooth
formed wall, or smooth trowelled slabs, must be
roughened, otherwise Indepth application may
notachievesufficientbondandpenetration.
1. Removealldirt, cementlaitence,form release
agents, curing compounds, loose particles,
paints, etc, by means of acid etching, wet or
drysandblasting,high pressure waterblasting
